Should I buy Dwarf Fortress? - Lemmy.world

I’m finally getting a little bored of my main game, Deep Rock Galactic. I’ve never touched DF, but it looks intriguing. I’m pretty average at sims. Will I be able to pick up and put down this game as needed?

You can, but realize it is a system focused game and in my opinion has a high learning curve. I would also recommend the Steam version rather than the free version due to the texture pack. I would also recommend playing along with a new players guide like Nookrium’s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGd_nAcmpnQ.

But the game is fully pausible and you can put it down and pick it up as needed.

Ok, I downloaded the steam version....wow, there is so much detail. I'll at least give it a go for an hour or two to see if I like it.
